It is said, in fact, that there is among you a sin of the flesh, such as is not seen even among the Gentiles, that one of you has his father's wife.
1 Corinthians 5:11
But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.
1 Corinthians 8:9
But take care that this power of yours does not give cause for trouble to the feeble.
1 Corinthians 8:10
For if a man sees you, who have knowledge, taking food as a guest in the house of an image, will it not give him, if he is feeble, the idea that he may take food offered to images?

And in this way, doing evil to the brothers, and causing trouble to those whose faith is feeble, you are sinning against Christ.

For first of all, it has come to my ears that when you come together in the church, there are divisions among you, and I take the statement to be true in part.

1 Corinthians 1:12
That is, that some of you say, I am of Paul; some say, I am of Apollos; some say, I am of Cephas; and some say, I am Christ's.
1 Corinthians 1:17
For Christ sent me, not to give baptism, but to be a preacher of the good news: not with wise words, for fear that the cross of Christ might be made of no value.
1 Corinthians 3:22
Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;
1 Corinthians 13:10
But when that which is complete is come, then that which is in part will be no longer necessary.
Philippians 3:15
Then let us all, who have come to full growth, be of this mind: and if in anything you are of a different mind, even this will God make clear to you:

For this reason I will be ready at all times to keep your memory of these things awake, though you have the knowledge of them now and are well based in your present faith.
-----
1 Corinthians 3:6
I did the planting, Apollos did the watering, but God gave the increase.
1 Corinthians 3:7
So then the planter is nothing, and the waterer is nothing; but God who gives the increase.
1 Corinthians 3:8
Now the planter and the waterer are working for the same end: but they will have their separate rewards in the measure of their work.
1 Corinthians 3:9
For we are workers with God: you are God's planting, God's building.
1 Corinthians 3:11
For there is no other base for the building but that which has been put down, which is Jesus Christ.
-----
Proverbs 13:7

Those who had no food he made full of good things; the men of wealth he sent away with nothing in their hands;
Luke 6:25
Unhappy are you who are full of food now: for you will be in need. Unhappy are you who are laughing now: for you will be crying in sorrow.
Romans 12:3
But I say to every one of you, through the grace given to me, not to have an over-high opinion of himself, but to have wise thoughts, as God has given to every one a measure of faith.
Romans 12:16
Be in harmony with one another. Do not have a high opinion of yourselves, but be in agreement with common people. Do not give yourselves an air of wisdom.
1 Corinthians 3:18
Let no man have a false idea. If any man seems to himself to be wise among you, let him become foolish, so that he may be wise.
1 Corinthians 3:19
For the wisdom of this world is foolish before God. As it is said in the holy Writings, He who takes the wise in their secret designs:
1 Corinthians 3:20
And again, The Lord has knowledge of the reasonings of the wise, that they are nothing.
-----
Isaiah 52:3
For the Lord says, You were given for nothing, and you will be made free without price.
Isaiah 55:1
Ho! everyone in need, come to the waters, and he who has no strength, let him get food: come, get bread without money; wine and milk without price.
1 Corinthians 4:8
For even now you are full, even now you have wealth, you have been made kings without us: truly, I would be glad if you were kings, so that we might be kings with you.
1 Corinthians 5:6
This pride of yours is not good. Do you not see that a little leaven makes a change in all the mass?
1 Corinthians 8:1

For if a man has an idea that he is something when he is nothing, he is tricked by himself.

For you say, I have wealth, and have got together goods and land, and have need of nothing; and you are not conscious of your sad and unhappy condition, that you are poor and blind and without clothing.
-----
Acts 5:11
Then great fear came on all the church and on all who had knowledge of these things.
1 Corinthians 6:6
But a brother who has a cause at law against another takes it before Gentile judges.
1 Corinthians 6:7
More than this, it is not to your credit to have causes at law with one another at all. Why not put up with wrong? why not undergo loss?
1 Corinthians 6:8
So far from doing this, you yourselves do wrong and take your brothers' property.
1 Corinthians 11:20
But now, when you come together, it is not possible to take the holy meal of the Lord:
1 Corinthians 11:22
What? have you not houses to take your meals in? or have you no respect for the church of God, putting the poor to shame? What am I to say to you? am I to give you praise? certainly not.
1 Corinthians 14:26
What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.
2 Corinthians 7:3
It is not with the purpose of judging you that I say this: for I have said before that you are in our hearts for life and death together.

Worship of images, use of strange powers, hates, fighting, desire for what another has, angry feelings, attempts to get the better of others, divisions, false teachings,
-----
1 Timothy 5:7
Give orders to this effect, so that no evil may be said of anyone.
-----
Hebrews 6:1
For this reason let us go on from the first things about Christ to full growth; not building again that on which it is based, that is, the turning of the heart from dead works, and faith in God,
Hebrews 6:2
The teaching of baptisms, and of the putting on of hands, and of the future life of the dead, and of the judging on the last day.
Hebrews 6:3
Now we will do this, if God lets us.
-----
Hebrews 7:7
But there is no doubt that the less gets his blessing from the greater.
-----
Luke 18:17
Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.
Romans 1:3
About his Son who, in the flesh, came from the family of David,
Romans 6:4
We have been placed with him among the dead through baptism into death: so that as Christ came again from the dead by the glory of the Father, we, in the same way, might be living in new life.
Romans 8:6
For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:

If anyone makes the house of God unclean, God will put an end to him; for the house of God is holy, and you are his house.

And as you have made your souls clean, being ruled by what is true, and loving one another without deceit, see that your love is warm and from the heart:
1 Peter 1:23
Because you have had a new birth, not from the seed of man, but from eternal seed, through the word of a living and unchanging God.
1 Peter 2:22
Who did no evil, and there was no deceit in his mouth:
1 John 4:20
If a man says, I have love for God, and has hate for his brother, his words are false: for how is the man who has no love for his brother whom he has seen, able to have love for God whom he has not seen?
